I Want You To Know - Devin McGregor Ketko (Making A Play In The Heat)

This is a remixed episode. It’s sort of a rerun with footnotes, updates, and revisiting themes. Since a lot of my show is interviewing my friends, or people I’m criss crossing within projects—often themes and events are revisited.

In some cases, a show’s theme will change with time—I guess that’s the nature of life, but reverberations can be tracked, lines (jagged and linear) drawn back to an event or episode or person.

Recently, while gathering mailbag questions, a writer named Sam asked about my experience on stage (as a performer and actor). I told them to refer back to episode 4 (we are on episode 160 something) with Devin Mcgregor Ketko, where Devin and I unpacked a DIY play she produced at her home, the heat of the summer. The material was intense, harrowing, and hot.

Devin and I have grown to be even closer friends (trauma does that), and I just wanted to celebrate her resolve, and all that were touched by the play she produced and starred in.

So, one last time in the heat—I want you to know Devin McGregor Ketko
